From the play Saturday’s Warrior, Paper Dream is my absolute favorite. When I first heard it many years ago, I was floored by it. It went right into the middle of my heart and it’s never left. It has a lot of meaning for me. …

This album is amazing. I used to be very fond of it when I was a teenage kid. I liked all the songs on it, and I liked the fact that the songs were so easy and melodic, and not very hard, even though it of course felt like …

I first saw this band in Jan 05 at my university and thought they were amazing. This is their debut album and it is one of the albums of the year and is sure to recieve nominations come awards time. The album includes classic tracks such as …

Billy’s Christmas Wish by Red Sovine is one of the few Christmas songs that makes me want to cry every time I hear it because of how it talks about a poor boy that has run away. This song is about a boy who’s dad is in jail and …

3005 is a song by Scars On Broadway which appears on their self-titled debut record. Along with Babylon, I would consider this to be one my favorite tracks on the album and I love how Malakian went with quite a different style on this track compared to the rest …

Moon Is Up is a song by The Rolling Stones which appears on their album Voodoo Lounge. This song starts off with a guitar and bass part which has an interesting rhythm but is somewhat difficult to describe without a person actually listening to this track. Jagger soon comes …

Run by Snow Patrol is an emotionaly lifting piece as it starts in a minor tone(sad) and gets major(happy) and repeats the phrase “Light up Light up”.
The guitar in the piece gets tedious as it seems to keep playing the same note over and over again from the middle …

Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun is a song by Pink Floyd which appears on their record A Saucerful Of Secrets. The track opens up with a light guitar riff in the right channel which begins by playing an eerie riff as additional instrumentation gradually begins …

I first heard this band while my husband was playing a video game, of all things. They provided the soundtrack to several dance club scenes. Dark, sci-fi dance club scenes, that is. I then realized that they had a song on the Queen of the Damned …

Serious is the opening song of Scars On Broadway’s self-titled debut record. As this being the first record, some fans were not sure what to expect from Daron Malakian, whether he’d go with the sound that he had in System Of A Down or whether he’d go in a …

If you have ever had to pack up and leave the only home you have ever known, then you know just what this song is about. You know how it feels to walk away from your loved ones, to say goodbye to the people that have been there all …

Together with Mogwai back in the early 1990s, Godspeed You! Black Emperor was the team of musicians that made post-rock into a musical genre of its own, taking a bit of influence from a bands like Slint and Savage Republic. They have never declared themselves as a “band” by …

A song that I really like off the new Slash album released a year ago is the track I hold on. This song features vocals by Kid Rock and of course the guitar arrangements were written and played by Slash. This song starts by fading in and getting …

The Ceiling Is Bendin’ is a song by the Flaming Lips and the sixth song on their album Oh My Gawd. Opening up with a drum and bass part which fades in and out repeatedly, Coyne comes in with the vocals of the track which thankfully has some character …

Telepathic Surgery is the third release by the Flaming Lips which follows their previous record, Oh My Gawd. On this record, I thought that the band continued to develop their songwriting and there are also some traces of the sound that they would go on to really hone and …

Perhaps the most common opinion, which circulates around the world about the AC / DC, says that the band has not changed since at least the death of the first singer Bon Scott. Considering that this death occurred twenty years ago, and that since that time the team …

A couple of years ago Coldplay was possibly one of the most popular alternative rock bands around the world, but even then I didn’t really like them because I was into much more hardcore music at the time. It took me a couple more years and the decline in …

My Apocalypse, the final song on Death Magnetic, should certainly remind listeners of Metallica used to close their records with songs like Damage, Inc. and Dyers Eve, or at least that’s what this song certainly does for me. For those of you who have heard the two aforementioned songs …

‘Don’t cha is the first single from Pussycat Dolls’s first album. I really like this song because it’s so energic and can make me cheer up.
‘Don’t cha is tell about the girl who feel that a boy like her, she feels that all the boy like her because she’s …

This 1998 album is the 7th album by Sepultura and the first to feature vocalist Derrick Green who replaced Max Cavalera. Green does a fine job, maybe even better than Max, this album is better than anything Max Cavalera’s side project Soulfly has ever done. This album uses Japanese …

Overview —“ High Speed Dirt, a music video released by Megadeth for their fifth effort, Countdown To Extinction, is a song and music video focused all about skydiving. It’s interesting that Megadeth chose to not release this song as a single yet still make a music video for it. …

Vampire Weekend, a new, up-and-coming Indie-Rock band has swept the nation with its “soft-rock.” Its latest album titled Mansard Roof is, in my opinion, excellent. Certain songs, (Campus, Walcott) are slightly repetitive, but offer great sound. All songs were recorded in very high quality. The band offers high-quality, good …

My favorite Taylor Swift song is Whitehorse. It says a lot that women need to pay more attention to. In the video, her guys cheats on her and then decides he wants her back. She has a hard time with it but ultimately says she has to move on. …

“Low” is the number 1 single by the band Cracker. I’m actually kind of surprised that nobody has written a review for such a memorable and catchy song already. “Low” single handedly brought recognition for the band Cracker and significantly boosted their record sales for their 1993 album “Kerosene …

This time, KISS was afforded a large …

Memory of A Longing Love or also what it is called as ‘Memori Sekuntum Rindu’ is very poignant, sweeping and sad. I have teared a few times whilst listening to this song, sung by the band Spoon.
Unfortunately, the lead singer of this band Spoon had been killed …

Homecoming, the second musical epic of this album along with Jesus Of Suburbia, is honestly just as good as Jesus Of Suburbia in my opinion. I praise both of these tracks heavily, not so much because the parts themselves are brilliant but because the whole song is very well …

Carry That Weight is one of the very last tracks on Abbey Road and although it is only 1:36 in track length, I feel like it offers quite a lot of music for that short amount of running space. I make a point to stress the time and length …

Overview —“ Almost Honest, another music video and single released by Megadeth for their album Cryptic Writings is a song that seems to actually really remind me of Trust. I’ve read a bit on similarities between the two, but I have to say that I actually do agree and …
